? regarding Psalm prayers LOTH

[Della]

This is from some notes from Diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin:

The psalms and canticle are recited antiphonally, that is, one side of the group
alternating with the other according to the division of the strophes. After the
leader recites the antiphon, those on his side begin the psalm together. At the
end of the psalm, the Glory to the Father is said (one side saying Glory to the
Father, the other saying as it was in the beginning) and the antiphon is
repeated by all. If the psalm-prayer is to be said, the leader prays it after the
antiphon has been repeated and with a proper introduction and conclusion.

I do feel like I should interject this into the discussion:

The “Psalm-Prayers” aren’t in the Editio Typica of the LOTH, and are only found in some English copies. Since they’re not in the Editio Typica, they’re not part of the universal LOTH per se, but they’re a local addition (and allowed, by all means).

However, after speaking with some people who serve on ICEL, who is currently re-translating the LOTH like they did the Mass, the Psalm-Prayers will be completely removed for the next edition of the LOTH. They will no longer be an option once this new version is approved and published (expect five years or so).

They are not local. They were intended for the Editio Typica. They are also included in the French monastic LOTH that I use, published in Luxembourg, but not in the French secular LOTH. They were never however included in the ET, but some countries and breviaries have them. They never caught on. As I mentioned earlier, they were from a Benedictine monk and were very much part of the process of the concilium that hatched the LOTH.
